Carl Suchy - Waltz N°1 Skeleton

Revived in 2017 after an oblivion of almost 100 years, the Carl Suchy brand was originally founded by the eponymous Austrian watchmaker in 1822 and counted Emperor Franz Joseph, Empress Sisi and Sigmund Freud amongst his customers.

In 2018, the Vienna-based company is presenting the Waltz N°1 Skeleton, a model equipped with a skeletonized extra flat automatic movement by Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier, modified by Swiss watchmaker Marc Jenni, a former member of the Académie Horlogère des Créateurs Indépendants (AHCI).

The stainless steel case (41.5mm x 9.3 mm) frames a dial, black or silver, with an openworked guilloché-pattern, vertically striped on the left side and horizontally striped on the right side.

The dial is animated by the rotating « waltzing » second disc at 6 o’clock featuring a striped guilloche-pattern that aligns with that of the dial once a minute.

Beating at 21,600 vibrations per hour and offering 48 hours of power reserve, the skeletonized VMF 5401/180 movement is characterised by the rhodium-plated bridges and the gold-plated off-centered micro-rotor.

The new model follows the Waltz N°1, the launch model of the brand that is available also with a blue dial or with a sportier black ADLC-coated steel case.

The Carl Suchy Waltz N°1 Skeleton is a limited edition of just 5 pieces with a price of Swiss Francs 23,500 while the non skeletonized versions are priced at Swiss Francs 8,500. carlsuchy.com
